Hi Leinier,

I'd like to add my 50 cents. From my point of view, the true UNIX way is
re-using whole programs. This provides unbelievable isolation and
correctness. If you don't want to fork myriads of processes each second,
then, it's, probably, better to ask for pipe mode of pkg_* tools. For
example, aspell works that way. You start a process, write commands and
queries and read results.
